My show at the Guren Gallery at the Cleveland Botanical Gardens is fast approaching!  It will be called "Spring Rhapsody" and I'm hoping to exhibit my larger dimension floral paintings.  Ha, if you follow this blog you know I've been belly aching about wanting to paint bigger for a while now.  This show is a good excuse to do it already!  I figured I'd start with something in my comfort zone, so, here's New Harvest a painting of sunflowers.  The "daily size" Earth Harvest is also pictured, that is available for purchase here.  Sorry about the atrocious photo, my husband and I are both plagued by the flu this weekend...I'll re-photograph it when the Day-quil haze wears off.  (:

    I also started working bigger after about 10 years, however I had to switch from still life to figurative work. I decided to go all out...3-feet by 4-feet and haven't looked back. Good Luck!

    hope you feel better soon. I was always told to work bigger..but it became too cumbersome. Now I am working small and enjoying it. I love your sunflowers

    Big or small, it's great. Feel better. Love the reference to Day-quil haze.
